Tire Rack sold out for season?
I need a set of four snowflake rated winter tires for my G500 with stock 18" MB wheels. The stock tire size is 265/60/18.
I have H rated Yoko AT/S on now that are capable in snow that do not handle ice well. They are more of an AT tire that is all season and highway capable. When I purchased them they were only option I had.
There is much ice, black ice and hills here as well as snow and slush.
I need that edge of safety a stud less or studded winter tire offers on black ice as well as better snow capability.
I was going to get Blizzaks from TR but site states "sold out for season" in that size.
I would be willing to go to a narrower winter tire with similar diameter and load capability, I am less concerned about the speed rating since this is the "last resort" vehicle.
Luke, any recommendations?
